  • Title: Stenting of the left carotid artery to relieve anginal symptoms.
    Author: Lanspa T, Esterbrooks DJ, Williams MA.
    Journal: Catheter Cardiovasc Interv; 2005 Feb; 64(2):223-6. PubMed ID: 15678457.
    Abstract:
    Stenting of the carotid artery is usually performed either to prevent an acute neurologic event or to treat episodes of recurrent transient ischemic attacks. Occasionally, it may be performed for other indications. We describe the case of a patient with prior coronary artery bypass grafting using a left internal mammary arterial graft, in addition to left carotid artery to left subclavian artery bypass for symptomatic left subclavian stenosis, who subsequently underwent left common carotid artery stenting to relieve anginal symptoms.
